RADICALS: Respite

Two cells in the "death house" at the
Charlestown (Mass.) State Prison last week failed to receive two
occupants who were scheduled to move into them. For Nicola Sacco and
Bartolomeo Vanzetti, sentenced to be electrocuted during the week of
July 10, were given a one-month respite by Governor Alvan Tufts Fuller
of Massachusetts to permit further investigation of their seven-year
case. A similar respite was also given to one Celestino F. Madeiros,
condemned killer, whose testimony is an important factor in the
Sacco-Vanzetti investigation.
